Mouth-breathing can reshape your jaw

HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART

Mouth-breathing isn't just a polite insult; it is a literal facial reconstruction nightmare. Chronically breathing through your mouth alters the resting posture of your tongue and jaw. Over years, especially during childhood development, this can cause the face to elongate, the jaw to recede, and the dental arches to narrow. Your poor posture is literally reshaping your skeletal structure.
